The SONG project and the prototype node at Tenerife
K. Uytterhoeven, P. L. Palle, F. Grundahl +10
SONG (Stellar Observations Network Group) is a global network of 1-m class robotic telescopes that is under development. The SONG prototype will shortly be operational at Observato…
Conducting the SONG: The robotic nature and efficiency of a fully automated telescope
M. Fredslund Andersen, R. Handberg, E. Weiss +4
We present a description of "the Conductor", an automated software package which handles all observations at the first Stellar Observations Network Group (SONG) node telescope at t…
The mass and age of the first SONG target: the red giant 46 LMi
S. Frandsen, M. Fredslund Andersen, K. Brogaard +12
The Stellar Observation Network Group (SONG) is an initiative to build a worldwide network of 1m telescopes with highprecision radial-velocity spectrographs. Here we analyse the fi…
First Results From The Hertzsprung Song Telescope: Asteroseismology Of The G5 Subgiant Star {\Mu}Her
F. Grundahl, M. Fredslund Andersen, J. Christensen-Dalsgaard +26
We report the first asteroseismic results obtained with the Hertzsprung SONG Telescope from an extensive high-precision radial-velocity observing campaign of the subgiant muHerculi…
The Stellar Observations Network Group (SONG) -- A Legacy Archive of Stellar Time-Domain Spectroscopy
M. N. Lund, F. Grundahl, M. S. Fredslund +35
The Stellar Observations Network Group (SONG) network has operated for more than a decade, providing long-baseline, high-cadence spectroscopic observations of bright stars and the…
Hardware and software for a robotic network of telescopes - SONG
M. F. Andersen, F. Grundahl, J. Christensen-Dalsgaard +7
SONG aims at setting up a network of small 1m telescopes around the globe to observe stars uninterrupted throughout days, weeks and even months. This paper describes the fundamenta…
Quasar Outflow Deceleration or Acceleration: Predictions and a Search
Patrick B. Hall, E. Weiss, W. N. Brandt +1
Quasar winds can shock and sweep up ambient interstellar medium (ISM) gas, contributing to galactic quenching. We combine and extend past models of energy-conserving shock bubbles…
Modeling quasar accretion disc temperature profiles
Patrick B. Hall, E. S. Noordeh, L. S. Chajet +2
Microlensing observations indicate that quasar accretion discs have half-light radii larger than expected from standard theoretical predictions based on quasar fluxes or black hole…
KATRIN: Status and Prospects for the Neutrino Mass and Beyond
M. Aker, M. Balzer, D. Batzler +159
The Karlsruhe Tritium Neutrino (KATRIN) experiment is designed to measure a high-precision integral spectrum of the endpoint region of T2 beta decay, with the primary goal of probi…
